Early Childhood Nature and Play Workshop Opportunity

On Tuesday March 12 in Madison, as part of a larger Preserving Early Childhood Conference, there is a stand-alone full-day workshop being offered to help teachers (and includes librarians!) involve young children in outdoor exploration and play.

The registered workshop, Play and Wonder in Nature, is $100. Workshop description: "Spend the day (9:00 - 4:00) exploring how outdoor play and nature-based learning enriches the whole child, as well as your teaching experience. Come dressed for the weather as we venture outdoors to explore ways to adapt lessons to incorporate play-based learning and strengthen our own connection to nature. Participants will become certified to use Growing Up Wild from Project Wild and Getting Little Feet Wet from Project Wet and receive activity guides as well as inspiration to take play-based learning outside!"
